As the Edmonton Oilers fight their way through the Stanley Cup Final, it's not just the players feeling the tension. On Friday night, Lauren Kyle, wife of Connor McDavid, posted an
story capturing a low-key viewing session with Mikayla Nurse, wife of fellow Oilers alternate captain Darnell Nurse.
The image, quietly elegant, showed a phone playing the game perched against a cushion with a glass of wine nearby and the soft glow of a city skyline in the distance. The caption read, "a view with a view," tagging Mikayla Nurse and adding blue and orange hearts. An understated but powerful nod to the Oilers' colors, it wasn't just about watching a game; it was about holding onto moments of calm in a high-stakes atmosphere, sharing a bond beyond the rink.

These behind-the-scenes glimpses offer something more than just fan service. As they humanize the players and reveal the emotional weight that accompanies every win or loss.

Why Has Rishabh Pant's Instagram Post About Toe Fracture Invited Trolls?
'Is he a soldier?' Rishabh Pant's Instagram post about his broken foot ended up on the wrong side of the Internet who mocked him for exaggerating his role for the country. Rishabh Pant, India's wicketkeeper-batter, showed incredible grit and courage when he walked out to bat in the fourth Test despite being in tremendous pain after a freak incident that resulted in a toe fracture. After India secured a heroic draw at Old Trafford in Manchester, thanks to tons slammed by the southpaws Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar, Pant took to Instagram to share the aftermath of the injury that left him in a fracture cast. While the vice-captain of India has received immense support from the cricket fraternity for his unmatched display on the cricket field, his Instagram post ended up inviting trolls. But why? Rishabh Pant's Viral Instagram Post The 27-year-old cricketer took to Instagram on Monday and acknowledged the love and support he has gotten from his fans after an on-field injury took him away from the action. 'Appreciate all the love and good wishes coming my way. It's been a real source of strength," Pant wrote in a heartfelt note. 'I will begin rehab once my fracture heals and I am slowly settling into the process. Staying patient, following the routines and giving it my 100%. Playing for the country has always been the proudest moment of my life. Can't wait to be back doing what I love." Trolls Emerge What was meant to be a harmless update to inform the worried fans about his leg situation soon became a target for countless Internet trolls. Is he a soldier? The trolls reasoned that it was a profession for which he was paid handsomely, and he was being 'too dramatic" and could 'tone down" a bit, as he was playing a sport and not putting his life on the line. 'I don't know why these Cricketers think they are doing some national duty by playing cricket. Bro you are just playing for BCCI to get money and fame that's it. Stop this nonsense for milking sympathy every other day, (sic)" wrote one user on X. 'Never understood this overhyped 'playing for the country" narrative in cricket. It's a damn profession, not some sacred national service. You chose it, maybe out of passion, just like millions of others choose their careers. No teacher, or engineer throws up patriotism after work (sic)." 'Chill brodie you got injured playing a sport not while defending your country to type all that (sic)." Despite the trolling, fans and well-wishers flooded Rishabh Pant with positive comments, praising his high spirits even though an injury forced him to miss the final Test between India and England at The Oval on Thursday, July 31. Freak Injury Batting on 37, Pant tried to reverse sweep a delivery bowled by Chris Woakes. His bat ended up under edging the ball that crashed onto his toe. The batter seemed in an awful amount of pain almost instantly, and when his shoe was taken off, the bruising and swelling showed the extent of the damage done. Such was the pain that Pant had to be carted off in a golf buggy. Rishabh Pant's foot is bleeding and a lot of swelling as well.
